Vast continent with over fifty countries located to the south of Europe separating the Indian and Atlantic oceans. In addition to tags for countries and cities there are also the more specific, regional tags such as [kilimanjaro] and [north-africa] to be preferred where relevant.
Africa is the world's second-largest and second-most-populous continent with 1.2 billion people as of 2016.
The climate of Africa ranges from tropical to subarctic on its highest peaks. Its northern half is primarily desert, or arid, while its central and southern areas contain both savanna plains and very dense jungle (rainforest) regions. In between, there is a convergence, where vegetation patterns such as sahel and steppe dominate. Africa is the hottest continent on earth and 60% of the entire land surface consists of drylands and deserts.
By most estimates, well over a thousand languages are spoken in Africa. Most are of African origin, though some are of European or Asian origin.
